Football.London’s Alasdair Gold has revealed that Fabio Paratici was in attendance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
Paratici stepped down from his position as Tottenham’s managing director of football back in April after his ban was upheld by FIFA for his alleged involvement in Juventus‘ capital gains scandal.
Spurs have not replaced the Italian yet but reports over the last few weeks have indicated that the club are soon expected to do so, with hiring a new sporting director thought to be one of Scott Munn’s top priorities (The Athletic).

Fabio Paratici still has ties with Tottenham it seems
It was Gold who revealed two months ago that Paratici was still working for Tottenham as a consultant and that the 50-year-old played a key role in the club’s signing of Alejo Veliz (Football.London).
The journalist has now revealed that Paratici was in attendance against Liverpool on Sunday, watching the Lilywhites overcome the Reds 2-1 in dramatic fashion.
Gold explained that it was the second home game in a row that the Italian had attended, having also been seen in the stands during the win over Sheffield United.

Paratici would be extremely proud of the way that some of his signings, including Destiny Udogie, Pedro Porro, Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr, are now performing. His transfer decisions have been more than vindicated.
